That sensor you have left over sounds like a crank sensor. Without it you have no pulse to fire the coils (no spark) The block you installed has no hole for the sensor to read the reluctor wheel on the crankshaft, which it also does not have. Therefore the block is not compatible for crank triggered ignition system. Your new block was MFG. prior to crank triggered ignition feature. See if the block or the head has a provision for conventional distributor as evidenced by the presence of a large freeze plug or welch plug

That must be the crankshaft position sensor. That's what tells the car when to fire. There usually on the bottom of the motor but it's sounding like that's your problem. Could have a bad crank sensor

How many O2 sensors does a 2005 Chevy Cobalt base model 4 cylinder have

Oxygen sensors are identified by bank and sensor position. Sensor 1 is always pre catalytic converter, sensor two is always post catalytic converter. If an engine is a 4 or 6 cylinder engine the whole engine is considered bank 1, if an engine is a V6, V8, V10....., the engine bank containing cylinder number 1 (first cylinder in the firing order) is considered Bank 1, the other bank is considered Bank 2. Interpretation Oxygen sensor designation B2S1 refers to Bank 2 Sensor 1, it will be the sensor on the engine side of the catalytic converter in bank two. Check this link to determine the cylinder that contains cylinder number 1. http://www.wellsve.com/custom_searches/ds_firing.php Wells Search Parts Catalog
